Supporters Rock-climby-Dave Posted May 22, 2010 Supporters Share Posted May 22, 2010 yup. anything bought pre-october 2007 can be used as if it were UKARA exempt. if you want to sell it, the person selling it to has to be registered though.

Err no...you dont have to be registered to sell it. You just have to be certain that the person you are selling to has a legally valid reason to purchase the RIF from you.

Supporters Rock-climby-Dave Posted May 23, 2010 Supporters Share Posted May 23, 2010 yeah, missed selling it to. but you also have to be UKARA registered yourself. the act is specifically to stop people who don't have a defence from being able to use RIF's for much. (even though at times it seems it is just to ###### off airsofters) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
